A PPC Journey Begins With The End In Mind

PPC Overview

In the simplest terms, PPC allows you to put an advert on the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) of a particular search engine like Bing or Google. You sign up to their in-house advertising program, create an advert, choose some keywords or phrases to target, select a bid price, destination page, then launch your campaign. When people see your advert on the internet, if they like the look of it, they will click it and be taken to where you have specified. Simple, right? Wrong.

This is where the excitement begins and our PPC Team love this part. It’s where the fun stuff happens. Yes, you can launch a campaign in a matter of minutes (barring editorial review) and you can be live and have your campaign and advert in front of the world fairly quickly, but what good is that without tracking, testing and analysis? Not very astute from an investment point of view in our opinion. Huge amounts of precious wasted resources and more importantly money can seep from your bottom line like a pin-prick in a barrel of oil or worse still; rip a hole in the side of your business like an iceberg did the Titanic. Not good either way.

What actually goes on behind PPC closed doors?

Interpreting lead generation expenditure from window shoppers through to conversion, customers and profit is where it all heats up, and it’s what we love to study and talk about . The cost-per-click (CPC) for each visitor to your website can vary greatly and this must be tracked in detail, otherwise you can end up massively out of pocket and in the colour we’ll try not to mention or visualise (anyone see red?).

How Complex is it really?

Once you know how to set-up and run a campaign, you will feel confident that there is not much to PPC and you might even dismiss it as a fairly simple process. In it’s essence as explained above, it is. However, how much time do you have to carry out the following tasks?

Effective Keyword Research

Creative Advertising Development

Landing Page Analysis

Advert Submissions and Changes

Optimal Account Settings

Bid Management

Campaign Tracking

Analytics & Analysis

Improvements – Daily, Weekly, Monthly

Testing, Testing & More Testing
